However, before singing his former girlfriend's praises, the former Bachelorette contestant first wanted to clear up a recent TikTok video of him doing drunk karaoke hours after reports emerged about the pregnancy. "Two nights ago, we were celebrating my brother's graduation party. We were doing karaoke. Next thing you know, Us Weekly is writing about me drowning my sorrows away because of the news about Gigi Hadid," he said during an interview with ESPN West Palm, adding: "If anything, I am excited for her, I am happy for her."

When asked if he was the father of Gigi's baby (a rumor that began earlier in the week), he responded: "No, no. But she's going to be the most incredible mother. She's a caring, sweet person, and she's going to be amazing."

Gigi and Tyler struck up a summer romance in August 2019, but within two months things fizzled out between them and they broke up. By December, Hadid was back with Malik, and the rest, as they say, is history.

"Once Gigi and Zayn got back together at the end of last year it was like they never skipped a beat and knew what they had was special," a source toldEntertainment Tonight while revealing the pair is expecting a baby. "The couple and their families are overjoyed."
